Wow! Overthink things much? If I told you I spend 90% of my days thinking about boobs would you provide me with a detailed breakdown of how I actually spend my time or would you just chuckle at the obvious joke and move on?

Yeah, that’s exactly what I was thinking. I mean, most people know what the poster is getting at, but it doesn’t actually make sense.

How would anyone know the breast size is smaller if the armor is larger? lol. Samus and Hilde from SC4, who are nearly completely covered head to toe in armor, are revealed to have pretty nice ones behind them. Likewise, Talim from SC has nothing that can be called armor yet she’s flat. Xiaghua basically fights in a dress but she has average boobs. These aren’t even exceptions, I can think of quite a few more. Guys rarely have armor too, and many of them don’t even have muscles despite not having a shirt, like a lot of the dudes in JRPGs. This is just such an old, tired, and weak argument. It’s just pointless. And this graph just doesn’t even try… lol.

Sometimes details aren’t needed. The point comes across regardless If you want precision and detail, mayhap you’ve come to the wrong place?

I like it!

Either that or in the video game world, kevlar and steel are perfectly acceptable materials for implants.

I loved this graph. It is so simple, and so true. For some reason in the gaming industry, the rule “the lesser the armor, the higher the AC” is true when it comes to females.

Jaheira from Baldur’s Gate can be completely unarmored; it depends what you provide her with. Also, with graphics that old, how can you even tell what size her boobs are?

this is great. but you know that boobies provide much better protection than any epic quality armor can

A female character in Mass Effect is fully armored, Joannna Dark from Perfect Dark, Taki from soul caliber, Jaheira from Baldur’s Gate. There are plenty of other female fully armored characters in video games. I think the main point here is the graph sucks and is stupid, maybe you should label the X and Y axis or just learn how to make a graph in excel.

It’s not sexist just because it talks about boobies!
The concept was good, but the chart has basic errors, and this ruins the effect.

That’s why Prime is so awesome……..worth that 18 hours of gameplay to watch her take off her armor.

Oh, and the Spacew Pirate ownage was cool too.

And Samus Aran is only the exception because in the first game they wanted to keep Samus gender a surprise until the end.

It wasn’t intended as sexist, simply that there seems to be a relationship between the amount of armour worn by a female in a video game and the size of their boobs. Anyone else able to come up with exceptions besides Samus, whose standard suit of armour is useful?

By: Dexaan

Dexaan — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 02:19:11 +0000

Samus Aran’s pretty much the only exception I could think of.

Let me guess:

1/ You’re 13.

2/ You don’t understand the graph.

3/ You don’t really have a sound grasp of what “sexist” means yet, but you heard someone on the TV talking about big-breasted videogame characters being sexist portrayals of women, and decided to try and wing it.

If there is any sexism in this graph it’s not from the guy who made it. it simply describes objective truth. The bigger boobs female characters have in a videogame, the less armor they’re wearing.

Compare:
Lineage2 (yes, it think that’s the female version of plate armor in that game)

DDO: Stormreach (again, plate armor)

Nah, it doesn’t need unit markings, but it could’ve been a lot better if they had Breast Size along the X-axis, Armor Required/Worn along the Y, and just had a downward slope. This looks like it took less time to draw than MS Paint takes to load.

teh penguin — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 23:08:56 +0000

Its not sexist. Do you ever play any video games that have women in them? After a while you’ll pick up on this.

Why do you think the men have so much armor? Same concept.

So sexist. FAIL!!!

By: Kit

I don’t think it needs unit markings on the side. However, MS paint makes a good idea slightly worse.

What Craig said! The fun of this one is it’s simplicity. Sort of like the ‘mental simplicity’ of what it’s charting. LOL.

You are taking this WAY too seriously. Relax. *hands you a Xanax*

This was funny! The simplest concepts are often the most informative!
